I completed everything however i am not rooted (maybe). I installed the wifi tether app i was using after i would run unrevoked however after going through the instructions i installed the updated app again and can no longer tether. I have not tried to load a custom rom because the driver would not install automatically. Any words of wisdom unlockr?

Phil,

Just had another user confirm it worked fine on his Evo.
Do you have the superuser permissions app showing in your applications drawer? If not reflash the ROM to reroot.
If so then click it first then click on the wifi tether again and see if it works.
Good luck.

Phil

yeah after thinking about it for a minute i realized that it was the fact i did not have superuser permission. appreciate all (and all everyone in the android community) does. thanks a ton

I did everything i reflash the ROM to reroot still does not have superuser permission app showing does this mean that this means that my phone is not rooted. I noticed when i was doing the update that the first TP is skipped and the second was BYPASSED. Is it normal unlockr?

john

please help. i know its probably something simple that im doing wrong, but i cant figure it out? i tried to flash it at least 6 or 7 times. it reboots back up, set everything up on it, then you think its rooted until you try to install the tether, and nope. we are heading out of town for fathers day later on today, and would love to be able to tether my laptop, any help is greatly appreciated.
